      "Of course we shouldn’t forget that the Apple iPad Air got a much wider initial release than its predecessor. The latest slate hit 52 countries in its opening weekend, including every major market out there, while its predecessor was only available in 27 market initially."

      That says it all. If the results were based upon the 27 markets as before the sales are DOWN. People are figuring out that Apple is not the premium brand it once was.

      Regular releases of their buggy iOS, hardware defects and silly pricing for what is really nothing more than Chinese products. What else do you need to know?

      But if you need a really simple device to operate or it's important for people to see you walking around with a device with the Apple logo on the back then sure, go out and get one.

        One thing for sure is that ios 7 has more bugs and crashes apps more often in ios 7 but you already knew that.

          For me iPad is the best tablet device, enjoying surfing and gaming with this machine, also it works with my Apple TV, for Cellphone I moved to Android from iPhone.

          I think iOS and Android both are doing good.

                I think she said the performance is comparable. I have both iPhone 4S and Lumia 920 and performance difference is not noticable.

                For the maps. You need data/internet connection for google maps but HERE maps and HERE drive can be used offline.

                For the security, looks like iOS never fails to get all vulnerabilities. Am I right?

                Looks like you are the one who is trolling, while she stated facts. The price difference of both phones are 4x. (my goodness)

                Note: I used iPhone 4S for games only and Lumia 920 for all other features and apps. Apps in WP8 are much better than Apple. Games are still not enough in WP8.

                      By the way still with those iOS7 animations iPhone open apps faster than android devices :)

                      So android devices always take forever to open anything, according to you, nice one!

                            Yes with every year the sales grow, whether due to the popularity of the product or the increase in human population. Does it really matter? Does not seam like an interesting article/topic...

                                  For example, if you want to send anykind of files, you can mail them via dropbox without any problem.

                                      To attach any other thing then photo or pictures, use apps like iFiles, then you can select the file and send via email.

                                      if you stuck with just going into mail app, then yeah you see its limited.

                                      Same with google's gmail on iOS, they link to all their services like google drive/chrome etc etc.
